Hurricane Landing Day Use

About

Hurricane Landing Day Use is a day-use recreation area managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on Sardis Lake in north Mississippi. Located near the eastern end of the lake's southern shoreline, the area features boat launching facilities accessible at varying water levels, making it a popular access point for anglers pursuing Sardis Lake's renowned crappie, catfish, and bass fishing. The day-use area includes a pavilion that accommodates approximately 100 people and a small playground. Daily and annual day use passes provide boat ramp access. This is not an overnight camping facility; those seeking camping should visit the separate Hurricane Landing Campground, which offers electrical and water hookups, flush restrooms, and showers. Sardis Lake contains over 98,000 acres of land and water in Panola, Lafayette, and Marshall counties. The area features distinctive Osage Orange (Bodock) trees. Oxford, Mississippi and Ole Miss are a 20-minute drive away.
